Aeren appeared in the sky where Renn stood waiting. Renn was watching people die before his eyes but still waiting for the right moment to kill the Giant Blood.
After waiting for an hour, Renn got his chance, and Aeren stood close to him. But Aeren didn't react and waited to see the freedom in them.
Renn cut the Giant Blood's head, and it shattered to become a blood lake, but it hadn't died yet.
Aeren saw this and knew why the Giant Blood didn't die—someone had manipulated Renn. Seeing this, Aeren took away the Giant Blood's freedom to revive.
"If I hadn't wanted to see their freedom, I would have done nothing."
Aeren disappeared and reappeared opposite to Renn, taking his sword from his hand and putting it through Renn's stomach. Renn watched with wide eyes as Aeren did this.
Aeren turned his head and saw Lira's head on the ground, then looked at Elenya, who had cut it off. She came to Aeren and looked at him with no expression on her face.
Aeren turned back to Elenya, who was watching Lira's head with a smile on her face. Others behind her watched in shock.
"Why did you come this late, Aeren?"
Elenya watched Aeren and asked with no expression, her eyes cold. All her innocence was gone as she watched Aeren, who had put Renn's sword into Renn. Everyone froze.
Moments ago, they had seen a goddess on that sword, and now that goddess did nothing against Aeren. That meant they had no chance to do anything, and their princess was also with him, meaning they had no chance to win. So they gave up and thought of surrendering, following the princess to rule the kingdoms.
"I was busy."
Renn watched Aeren and Elenya speaking like close friends from the beginning, and this shocked him the most because he had trusted her the most and thought her innocent. But her truth made Renn vomit blood.
Renn lifted his head and saw Lira's head on the ground in the distance. He was the only one left alone here. His eyes met Aeren's and saw nothing—Aeren saw him as nothing. Renn looked into his eyes and asked:
"Aeren, why do you want to kill me?"
Aeren stared at Renn and turned his head toward Renn's system. Renn was shocked by Aeren's action. He could tell that Aeren could see his system, and he understood the meaning. Aeren didn't come for Renn but for the system.
"Come out, system, or your lovely user will die."
Elenya didn't understand the meaning, but she stood close to Aeren, watching them and doing nothing, ready to handle the situation if something happened.
The system didn't come out, and Aeren took the sword from Renn's stomach and placed it close to his heart. Before Aeren could stab Renn, he disappeared from existence. This scene was witnessed by everyone, and everyone forgot about Aeren.
No one even knew his name or anything like "Aeren." Everyone started thinking about Princess Elenya watching the scene, not even knowing what had happened here. She remembered that she had killed her most hated person, Lira. She also remembered her family had died, but she didn't remember who killed them—she was happy about that. She found freedom from them.
When she was thinking about those thoughts, she saw an existence whose beauty couldn't be compared to anything—she was looking at Renn. When she saw this stunning beauty that was even more beautiful than any goddess in any world:
"Puppets need to know their place." The system's words were heard by the whole existence as she took care of Renn, trying to heal his wound.
Elenya heard this and felt shivers throughout her body. She knelt on the ground and didn't even know how to stand on her legs. When she was on the ground, she started looking up at Renn when someone started appearing out of nowhere. Elenya didn't know who he was, but she felt relief.
"Oh, system. We should have spoken to each other. Why did you erase me?"
Aeren stared at the system with emotional detachment. The system looked the same but had a little surprise and thought, How is that possible? I erased him from existence. How can I see him?
The system didn't show any surprise on her face, but she still didn't believe that Aeren was still in her sight.
"Who are you?" the system finally asked Aeren. She couldn't take it anymore—she had never met anyone who could come back from non-existence. How can anyone come back from existence that doesn't exist at all? Is Aeren non-existence itself, or is his truth something I can't understand?
Aeren watched both Renn and the system, and the same thing happened to Renn. He disappeared like Aeren had disappeared. Aeren made him disappear, and the system forgot about Renn immediately. She started looking around and remembered her conversation with Aeren. She remembered removing him from existence, but somehow Aeren had come back, though she didn't remember anything about Renn.
"I'm Aeren. Systems don't have the power to understand me."
Aeren smiled and spoke to her with a polite tone. The system started to fear Aeren and began trying to make him disappear from existence, but Aeren came back every time.
Aeren had been forgotten by people thousands of times because of the system. She was too scared, so she kept doing it. Aeren slowly walked toward the system, but she didn't lose hope and continued trying.
Aeren finally reached near the system, and she started to break without doing anything. The same phenomenon happened when Aeren had taken everything from everyone. But this time, the system was breaking. Shattering started happening, and the system saw Aeren but still didn't understand what was happening to her.
Elenya saw herself disappearing and shouted, "What is happening to me?"
"My body is shattering..."
"AHHAHAHHHH... please, someone help me."
"So this is the end..."
Everyone was disappearing around the world, and crying, screaming, and shouting were heard everywhere. People didn't know how to save themselves or protect themselves from this phenomenon.
People started giving up on life as they began being erased from the system. The system was erasing itself just by seeing Aeren.
But she accepted this shattering, and everyone started disappearing with the system as Aeren watched the phenomenon.
Aeren had finally written his third freedom: Freedom from the System.
Aeren watched the beautiful phenomenon and thought:
"The system had a limited view of the world, and after seeing freedom, it started to break and shatter.
Freedom and systems cannot live together. Freedom sees the world as cruel, and systems see it as disciplined.
Freedom sees the world without restrictions, and systems are restrictions.
Freedom cannot be placed, and systems create places.
Freedom has no bounds, and systems work within bounds.
Freedom cannot be seen by slaves, and systems create slaves.
Freedom walks a path without meaning, and systems walk the path of success.
Everyone walks a path of success to find freedom, but freedom is met without meaning."
Aeren shattered with them and disappeared as well.
